    86 200x custom colored shrouds

    Well my first two didnt come out right because of air pockets, but this one seems right;

    If I can make that colored plastic, then it shouldbt be that much. I have had enough for 4 shrouds it seems from these two chemicals, and that was 70.00

    Not too bad in labor, just irritating because without a clear mold, i cant see if I get every crevice.

    One problem, is that on the rear where I pour in the plastic, the mold has a mark that leaves it a bit thin. Cant crack it yet, but im trying.

    it comes in almsot EXACTLY the same, and the mount holes line up.

    Looks pretty good before I jump in and say I'll take a bunch, how much do you want per set? I'd be interested in white and yamahaish blue.

    I didn't read anywhere in his posts that they were for sale. lol They look pretty cool tho. my hat goes off to you for at least stepping up and taking a shot at it.

    I'd be careful about selling homemade shrouds to memebers on this site. god forbid they crack or dont hold up well. they lynch mob will be knockin at your door in no time!

    What kinda chemicals or what's all involved in making these? (just outta curiosity)

    I wont be selling until i get this perfect. Also the colors are dyes I ass in, so I have to find the right dosages. So far the shrouds have held up to; , dropping, and a few stepping on them.
